Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull assorted fixes - mostly vfs - from Al Viro:
 "Assorted fixes, with an unexpected detour into vfio refcounting logics
  (fell out when digging in an analog of eventpoll race in there)."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  task_work: add a scheduling point in task_work_run()
  fs: fix fs/namei.c kernel-doc warnings
  eventpoll: use-after-possible-free in epoll_create1()
  vfio: grab vfio_device reference *before* exposing the sucker via fd_install()
  vfio: get rid of vfio_device_put()/vfio_group_get_device* races
  vfio: get rid of open-coding kref_put_mutex
  introduce kref_put_mutex()
  vfio: don't dereference after kfree...
  mqueue: lift mnt_want_write() outside ->i_mutex, clean up a bit
